Description

Explore the complexities of displacement and social impact with Involuntary Resettlement: Comparative Perspectives. Published as part of the Advances in Evaluation & Development series, this volume examines the evolving landscape of resettlement policies driven by large-scale engineering projects. Since the 1980s, the World Bank has taken a leading role in developing guidelines to mitigate the effects of projects like dam construction on local populations. This book analyzes the shift toward more responsible agency practices, focusing on essential areas such as social infrastructure, environmental effects, and the restoration of income for affected communities. By studying the lessons learned from past resettlement programs, this work provides a deep look into how compensation and service delivery are managed in modern development assistance. It serves as a valuable resource for those studying the intersection of economics, development, and social policy, offering a comparative look at how agencies handle the human side of large-scale infrastructure development.
